I got troubles that I can’t hide
 So many and it’s turning on the inside out
 I know a woman’s nature
 There’s nothing you can save here
 Me, [bad word] every time

 We got two tickets but the one way
 And I went with it so I can’t say no
 I lit a fuse I can’t stop
 I opened doors I can’t lock
 Still, I never meant to be this close

 And let it slip away
 I keep stumbling till I finally miss the last train
 Ooh, she’s ready, I’m not ready
 I hear people go crazy for steady
 But me, [bad word] every time

 So I told her get a head start
 Like the last one I didn’t have the heart
 To tell her straight
 I know how she’ll receive it
 And I can’t bear to see it
 That’s why I never meant to be this close

 And let it slip away
 I keep stumbling till I finally miss the last train
 Ooh, she’s ready, I’m not ready
 I hear people go crazy for steady
 But me, [bad word] every time

 And I hope she sees
 It’s not her, it’s just me
 And I’m so sorry
 To be this close

 And let it slip away
 I keep stumbling till I finally miss the last train
 Ooh, she’s ready, I’m not ready
 I hear people go crazy for steady
 But me, [bad word] every time

 I’m close and let it slip away
 I keep dragging my feet till I finally miss the last train
 Ooh, she’s ready, I’m not ready
 I hear people go crazy for steady
 But me, [bad word] every time
 [bad word] every time
 [bad word] every time I’m close
